DIB: “Our wonderful petro-dollars at work. You do know that the USS Eisenhower has been deployed to protect (ultimately) shenanigans like this?…”

I may want to confirm this with Rummy the next time we have lunch but I feel confident that I can say that the USS Eisenhower and its associated battle group has not been dispatched by America to the Gulf to shut down Mahmood’s Den.

Trust Me On This,

Tantor

[...] Pakistanis don’t need to be told how much it can hurt to be at the receiving end of a censorship on their own blog, we sadly have had a massive blockade on the entire Blogspot.com cordoning off more then 10 million blogs for over 11 months and counting. Its sad to note that a few days back Mahmood.tv a very brilliant and outspoken blogger from Bahrain has been blocked by his own government accsuing him of “defamation of the person of the king and royal family members.” (press law no. 47, passed in 2002) … more … Mahmood suggests that all the sites blocked are ones that published information on “the Jamal Dawood scandal”. Dawood is the head of Press and Publication for the Bahrani government and has been involved with part plans to order all Bahrani bloggers to register their online presences. He’s evidently implicated in “Bandargate“, a scandal named after Salah al-Bandar, the Sudanese/British author of a report that documents attempts to rig parliamentary elections in favor of the Sunni minority.

As ugly as this is, it might end the blocking strategy of Abdul Ghafaar. I’m optimistic. They better unblock MTV soon!

It’s different this time because Mahmood is the top Bahraini “blogger”..
We are all willing to back you up.

Inshalla soon you’ll frame this blocking order and hang it proudly because it proves nothing but Mahmood’s liberal thoughts that enlighten many others.
